No she was a little sad . But it did solve the mystery to where it went.

I have a Lamarck's Angel; they are not the flashiest angel by any means but are certainly pretty. Mine has a nice silvery blue colour. It is totally reef safe. It ate immediately, and spends most of its time at or near the front of the tank, swimming around and looking for food in the water coloumn. They are planktivores unlike most other angels. Genicanthus are definitely the ones you want if you want a reef safe angel.

I had no problems at all getting mine to eat, he eats anything i put in there for him. And ive also never seen mine jump or even attempt to. All in all a very nice fish.

i have had 2 lameracks one in the 120 until it decided to carpet surf , it took a liking to sps and my clams.
the one i have now is starting to take a nip here and there at the clams. so i must have bad luck.

From what i understand about them that is indeed bad luck, i have both clams and sps and mine doesnt go near them at all!

When I get a 100+ gallon tank I'd like to get a Swallowtail. Though their colors are muted they are still beautiful fish.

once the swallow tails settle in the colors they do have kinda glow, i love mine
